Yow. That certainly renders it useless to us. We did our last manual in LaTeX, but there's growing pressure to go to something more-or-less WYSIWYG; evidently the rest of the company isn't as strong on the form/content distinction as I am... However, whatever we use, it is quite important for us to be able to generate a PostScript file that we can send offsite for typesetting. -- Amanda Walker InterCon Systems Corporation
